Display panels in general have improved by a huge margin over the last couple of years. Until a year or so back, gaming monitors were all built to operate at higher refresh rates coupled with adaptive synchronisation to ensure really smooth gameplay. So smooth that they appeared unreal for those using such monitors for the first time. 

The best monitor we saw last year was clocked at 100 Hz, and now that we’re at the end of 2017, 240 Hz has become the new norm. Another thing we noticed was that more manufacturers have adapted the open-source FreeSync technology. The Wiki page lists 92 models while NVIDIA’s G-sync only has 31 models. You can clearly see the winning standard, and we’re always glad to see an open-source standard win over a proprietary one. Let’s take a look at this year’s best gaming monitors.
